Detective Sgt. Victor Mendes of the Major Crimes Unit said Friday no arrests have been made and police don't have any suspects.

The robbery occurred about 2 a.m. when one of the suspects walked into the convenience store and gas station and walked down an aisle. He then walked behind the counter and threatened the male clerk with a kitchen knife, according to police. As he stole cash from the drawer, the second suspect came in and took cigarettes and rolling papers, police said.

According to police, the clerk fought back when the robber with the kitchen knife ordered him to get on his knees, at which point the second suspect pulled a sword from his waistband.

Khalife said the clerk suffered a bruise on the back of his leg. "He's doing good," Mendes said.

The suspects fled the store, tailed by a cab driver who lost them as they ran toward Mitchell Street, police said.

The first suspect was described as a black male, 17-20 years old, 5 feet, 2 inches to 5 feet, 6 inches tall, weighing 130-140 pounds and wearing black jeans and a black, hooded sweatshirt.

The second suspect was described as a thin Hispanic male, 5-6, wearing a black and gray-checked sweatshirt and jeans.

Anyone with information is asked to call Detective William Sauve at 508-991-6300,
